Evolv™ Splitter Terminals with Pushlok™ technology offers the smaller terminals for FTTX networks than ever before. The Pushlok connector is half the size of industry leading hardened connectors and enables terminal sizes up to one quarter of the size of traditional terminals. Designed for use in distributed split access networks, the terminal is small enough to be placed in existing handholes or pedestals where space is paramount, on building facades, or in aerial networks (pole- or strand-mount). Improved aesthetics improve end user adoption for facade applications. Unstubbed units have an input port for a single Pushlok drop assembly to provide signal source with subscriber adapter ports aligned in a single row on the right. Each port’s corresponding release button is actuated to remove dust cap or drop. When installing drops, the keyed ports provide an audible and physical positive feedback minimizing technician variation and potential damage due to mishandling.
